I Cant Get KQIV To Run In DOSBox

[totallyice]

I downloaded the DOSBox installer from the Sierra Help Pages (http://www.sierrahelp.com/Patches-Updat ... llers.html). But after it installs, I click the KQIV icon, DOSBox comes up for about 2 seconds, then disappears. HELP PLEASE!!!!

Run the Diagnostic tool in the game's folder and attach the results here.

You installed the game on your desktop? You are missing a number of files, but the important one missing is the main EXE. What are all of the EXEs on your floppy disk?

I actually got it to work. I got a USB floppy drive and just booted the computer in DOS mode. Works great for Vista. But now that I have a Windows 7 PC. . . UGGGGGGGGG! LOL.
